Abstract
A novel battery consisted of Zn/ZnO anode with polymer binders has been developed by the direct mixing method. The influence of PANI on the performances of Zn/ZnO anode surfaces has been studied using cyclic voltammetry, Tafel polarization, and Impedance studies. The additions of PANI have not formed any coatings on Zn/ZnO anodes. However, a thin layer of PANI has formed. XRD studies revealed that influence of PANI on the Zn/ZnO anodes had not shown any significant changes in the hexagonal phase. SEM images confirmed that Zn's dendrite structure is prevented by polymers such as PVP, PVA, and microemulsion of castor oil. The impedance studies have demonstrated that there is a reduction in Rct values accounted for enhanced conductance of Zn/ZnO anodes.
